Jennifer Lopez was seen crying at her son Max’s high school graduation on Friday.
The singer — wearing a floral dress, gray cardigan and nude heels — could be seen wiping away her tears in photos obtained by Page Six.
In another image, Lopez embraced the 18-year-old, who sported a tie-dye shirt, tan pants and matching kicks on his special day.
The artist was joined by her parents, Guadalupe Rodríguez and David Lopez, manager Benny Medina and Max’s twin, Emme.
Lopez and Emme were also photographed walking together, with the recent grad sporting a red polo and blue slacks.
The “Office Romance” star shares her twins with ex-husband Marc Anthony, to whom she was married for 10 years before their 2014 divorce, though he wasn’t seen at the ceremony.
The musician also skipped out on Emme’s graduation last month.
Lopez, however, attended Emme’s ceremony with Rodríguez, Max and her former stepson, Samuel Affleck.
Emme and Ben Affleck’s 14-year-old son were seen chatting in a series of pictures obtained by Page Six at the time.
Lopez tied the knot with Affleck in 2022 and the pair has kept in close contact with each other’s children since their 2024 split.
The “Argo” star shares three kids with ex-wife Jennifer Garner: Samuel, Violet, 20, and Fin, 17.
During Emme’s graduation, it was revealed that Lopez’s child is going by a new name.
A March Instagram post announcing where Emme is going to college, identified the student as “Oskar Muñiz” alongside a childhood photo. The post also tagged Emme’s Instagram account.
However, Lopez’s tears on Friday were to be expected, as the hitmaker admitted she had been “crying for two months” while on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” the evening before Emme’s graduation.
The actress added that her main goal is to now see the twins “be happy and go where they want to go and do what they want to do.”
Before the kids jet off to their next chapter, Lopez revealed how she avoided spoiling her children.
“I mean, they do what they see you do,” she said while on Monday night’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live.”
“So, it’s not so much what you tell them all the time. Even though I’m trying to download everything I’ve ever learned in my life, every lesson … to them right now … before they leave [for college] in August,” she expressed.
For Lopez, the superstar said it’s “who you are as a person” and what your children see you do.
The “Kiss of the Spider Woman” star confessed that her kids don’t “want to be anything like” her and want their “own path.”
“They see this persona as such a thing,” Lopez explained to host Andy Cohen. “And but I also see them like mimic, not mimic, but just pick up things that are the good things or the good traits about you.”
